The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says of the nearly 34 million recalled automobiles, people in states with high humidity will have their vehicles repaired first. However, car manufacturers still need to provide data, so people could be driving with potentially deadly airbags for a while.

Regulators have linked the life-saving devices to six deaths worldwide, including five in the U.S. and hundreds of injuries. The defective airbags can explode violently when they deploy and rupture, sending shrapnel flying.

Panic was at a fever-pitch after the official recall announcement was made Tuesday. So many car owners flooded a government website to see if their vehicles were on the recalled list the site was temporarily knocked offline.
